Seed of Dao

Xia Qing'er

With so much momentum being released, even Ye Chen couldn't help but feel afraid.

But the little girl seemingly wasn't scared, and coldly stared at the people around her.

"What's this?" Her small hand began pointing at several people who displeased her and continued speaking, "You group of shameless old people! At your age, you're bullying a little girl with such momentum! You poor people can also only talk nonsense! Wanting this and that, but never taking out what I need! Embarrassing! Disgusting!"

"Little bitch! You better watch your mouth." A strong man with fifth-level qi refining couldn't hold back and coldly walked toward the seller girl.

However, the girl wasn't scared at all. Even though she only had second-level qi refining, she began crossing her arms, puffing out her chest and looking at the man who spoke with a face full of provocation.

"What? Can an old man like you only talk and bully the weak? Come on, come on, here! Come all of you to grandma! Let me see who dares make trouble in Blue Moon City."

"Damn it!"

"Little girl!"

The group of people began shouting angrily again, but no matter how angry they were, none dared take action in Blue Moon City. It was too risky and not worth what they'd get.

In the end, the group of people could only express their frustration before leaving one by one, leaving only Ye Chen alone.

"Why aren't you leaving?" The little girl who began cleaning up her only merchandise asked Ye Chen without looking.

"Of course I want to buy Green Qi Grass."

"Do you have Vitality Pills?"

"I do!"

"If you don't have any, you'd better not bother me," the girl who was still shouting coldly suddenly froze and looked toward Ye Chen. "Did you just say you have them?"

"I do have Vitality Pills." Ye Chen answered while taking out a jade bottle containing three vitality pills inside.

"Let me see!" The little girl's eyes began to sparkle with excitement.

With a slight smile, Ye Chen took out one pill the size of a fingernail, milky white in color, and a refreshing aroma immediately wafted out.

"That really is a Vitality Pill!" The little girl was excited, and her small hand quickly reached for the pill in Ye Chen's hand.

But Ye Chen didn't let her, and immediately stored the pill and jade bottle back into his storage pouch.

"What do you mean!" The little girl looked as if she'd been stung, and angrily and coldly shouted at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen chuckled softly, didn't answer and instead asked, "Do you think one Vitality Pill is worth only one Green Qi Grass?"

"Worth it or not, I already said I would exchange one Green Qi Grass for five Vitality Pills. Since you've already made an agreement, you must agree! If not, I'll... I'll...." The girl began getting confused when trying to threaten Ye Chen, and suddenly both her eyes seemed to start turning red.

"I didn't say I would exchange five Vitality Pills for one Green Qi Grass. I'm also sure you won't be able to do anything to me." Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders carelessly.

"But you already took out the Vitality Pills. So you have to agree to exchange them... If not, I... Huhu... Waah...." The little girl suddenly began crying, making Ye Chen stunned.

What was this? Hadn't the little girl been very dominating just now when intimidated by a group of people, but why was she suddenly crying just because of a few words?

Ye Chen didn't know whether to laugh or be sad, but he was sure the little girl was just pretending, so he wasn't tempted and said, "Show me where you got the Green Qi Grass, and I'll exchange it for one bottle of Vitality Pills."

"Really?" The little girl was instantly excited, and her sad face seemed to have never happened.

It had to be admitted, the performance of this little girl who appeared to be fourteen years old truly deserved appreciation.

"I'll exchange it, but you must promise to take me there."

"Deal!" The little girl immediately nodded and suddenly walked toward Ye Chen.

Then hugging Ye Chen's arm, the little girl who was only as tall as his chin suddenly smiled widely. "My name is Xia Qing'er, what's your name, uncle?"

Uncle?

Ye Chen suddenly fell silent and his eyelids began twitching.

"Little girl, I'm only seventeen years old, I'm not old yet, so don't call me uncle. Call me Brother Ye Chen."

"I see. So your name is Uncle Ye Chen." The girl nodded, as if she understood Ye Chen's explanation very well, and didn't care at all about the wrinkles on his face.

"Follow me, Uncle Chen." Not waiting for Ye Chen's response, Xia Qing'er immediately pulled his arm.

Ye Chen furrowed his brow and intended to refuse, but he felt that he couldn't pull his arm back.

This girl is unusual.

Such a thought instantly appeared in his mind, but in the end Ye Chen compromised to follow Xia Qing'er. After all, this was Blue Moon City.

It didn't take long before they both arrived at a courtyard house that wasn't too large. Presumably, this was Xia Qing'er's residence.

On the way here, Ye Chen also learned that Xia Qing'er had a sister who was injured, so she needed Vitality Pills to heal herself.

Xia Qingyue, that was the name of Xia Qing'er's older sister, who was in her early twenties.

"This is where I live with my sister," Xia Qing'er began speaking and pointed to one of the houses next to her residence.

"Because only my sister knows where the Green Qi Grass herb grows, you have to wait for her to recover before we take you there. So, Uncle Chen can rent the house next to us while waiting for my sister to get well."

Ye Chen furrowed his brow and felt displeased. "Are you playing me?"

"No, no, no. Of course Xia Qing'er wouldn't dare play Uncle Ye Chen. Xia Qing'er is a beautiful, kind, gentle and cute girl. So, it's impossible I would dare play Uncle Chen."

Ye Chen furrowed his brow and didn't believe the girl who had a personality that constantly changed at any moment at all.

"Wait here for a moment!" Xia Qing'er didn't give Ye Chen time to speak and ran into her residence.

After some time, Xia Qing'er returned carrying a wooden box in her hands and smiled sweetly at Ye Chen.

"In this box there are five Green Qi Grass, so it should be worth exchanging for one Vitality Pill. Of course, if Uncle Chen wants, we can take you to the place where we found this grass in exchange for several more Vitality Pills."

Ye Chen took the wooden box and examined it. The result was the same as what Xia Qing'er said, there were five Green Qi Grass inside. Each of the herbs was also over ten years old and fully mature.

From this, Ye Chen couldn't help but look toward the little girl in front of him and began thinking that although this little girl seemed uncontrolled, she still knew the word caution and didn't show all her wealth in front of others. From this, Ye Chen could also be sure that the two Xia sisters indeed found a hidden herb location.

"Alright, I'll wait for your sister to recover." Ye Chen agreed to make the exchange and gave her the jade bottle containing three Vitality Pills inside.

"Great!" Xia Qing'er was very happy and smiled cheerfully upon learning there were three Vitality Pills in one jade bottle.

Looking toward Ye Chen's back as he walked away, she couldn't help but say, "Uncle Chen, you'd better prepare yourself starting now, otherwise you might die immediately upon seeing my older sister!"
